You can configure the settings of each post processor to match your production methods exactly.

All post processors are fully configurable

2. Integration through intermediate CAM software

Use StairDesigner's DXF post processor to output clean layered files of all part shapes and assembly details. If your CAM software accepts DXF files, the integration will work.

StairDesigner Pro PP outputs DXF files which are loaded into the CAM software that comes with your machine. If you are in the process of buying a router, you will need to check if it comes with CAM software. If not, we can recommend some good options.

StairDesigner's DXF files are layered, with each layer referencing a specific tool path.

The CAM software will interpret this information and generate the machine code to actually run the CNC.

StairDesigner's DXF post processor comes with a huge range of customisations that allows you to fine tune the output to your exact production methods.

The complete process from design in StairDesigner through to manufacturing on your CNC is very fast and reliable. Finished design to cutting of even large projects can be achieved in under five minutes and is largely automatic.

You'll experience major time and money savings compared with design by hand or CAD then manual part by part input of the job into your CNC's CAM software.

Below are just some of the CAM software and CNC brands being used alongside StairDesigner right now...

Test StairDesigner output with your CNC first

The StairDesigner project file, cut list and plans are also included. But what you need to test with your CNC are the relevant part by part CNC files.

Please note, for the integration to work in full, StairDesigner's post processor parameters will need to be set to correspond to your machine's tooling specifications. However, you will be able to confirm the files load successfully into your CAM software.
